- Independent Review 2009

‘WAKEDOWN’

“WEAK13 doing what it does best. Everything about this song is just manic. To hear music run amok is a rare thing but this is just sheer terror with melody”

- Independent Review 2009

Both tracks are mastered and engineered by ‘Crazy Mule’ from Stourbridge England.
